jrrajic Party Convention in~CWcago, "Tuesday and Wednesday August 27 and 28. The actions
will be oriented to issues, not candidates. Simply stated, these issues are American withdrawal
from Vietnam, and an end to repression in the ghettos.
Tom Hayden and Rennie Davis are leading a team of 25 full-time volunteers in Chicago, who are
arranging housing for 50,000 visitors. Plans are also being made for legal and medical teams,
and possibly a daily newspaper for the week of the convention. August 28th is the day of the
actual nomination; the 27th is LBJ's birthday.

to begin the previous week. These will consist of "street theater, rock music, mobile sound
trucks, pickets, sit-ins and so on, and will be led by seasoned demonstration leaders," according
